IN-DEPTH STUFF

Physical Description
Axia may be a dragon, but taking on that form tends to be dangerous and impractical these days. Instead, she relies on a roughly human form for the most part, although it does retain a few bits and pieces that are distinctly not human. In this form she looks roughly to be somewhere in her twenties, and while not particularly physically imposing, she seems sturdy enough to take a few hits. Long, platinum blond hair streams down her shoulders, and her eyes have an unnaturally bright blue colouration to them, lighting up even more when she’s excited or surprised.

The not-so-human parts of her body consist of features carried over from her draconic form, albeit drastically reduced in size. Smooth scales coat several parts of her body, and can be seen most prominently along her back, as well as the backs of her arms and legs. The scales also take on a pearlescent shine when exposed to light, complementing their usual silvery colour. She also has a pair of scaled wings that emerge from her back- while she is technically capable of dismissing them temporarily, she finds it highly uncomfortable to be without them for an extended period of time.

Personality
Despite being thousands of years old at this point, Axia's intense sense of curiosity has hardly dulled a bit. If anything, her departure from Earth has only provided her with more places to explore and oddities to interact with, giving her a constant stream of new information to satisfy for desire to learn. Any time she's faced with an opportunity to improve her understanding of something, she finds it difficult to refuse. This has led to more than a few risky adventures over the course of her lifetime, but she's not stupid- she knows enough to recognize and avoid truly deadly encounters whenever possible. Well, either that, or she's just incredibly lucky. Probably both.

An explorer at heart, Axia is a highly adaptable person and can adjust to changes in her surroundings without much trouble as a result. It's quite difficult to catch her "out of her element", but it's not impossible to throw her off guard- being a heavy daydreamer, there are certainly moments when she's not paying as much attention as she probably should be. In her younger years, her mood had a tendency to fluctuate a bit as her surroundings changed. Nowadays, she's a lot better at regulating her emotions, and tends to maintain a confident and collected demeanour (although she's certainly still a bit on the excitable side).

Magic/Abilities
Axia possesses powerful light magic. Not to be confused with holy magic, her abilities are more focused around utilizing radiant energy and bending the light around her. She can use her magic do things like throw bright pulses of energy, blind others with a brief flash of light, or manipulate light to create harmless illusions. There is a limit to how much energy she can expend at once before having to "recharge", although being exposed to light can help her to regain her energy more rapidly.

Other fun stuff!
- She maintains a "hoard" consisting of stuffed animals resembling all manner of interesting and unique creatures, as well as a whole lot of devices typically designed with the purpose of making things explode.
- She really doesn't like it when the lights go out unexpectedly. It's probably the easiest way to reliably spook her.
- She absolutely loves to stargaze and spends a lot of time staring out of ship windows.

Relationships
Relationships with other crew members TBD.

Ain- Her soon-to-be ultra mega crush.

History
A highly curious individual from birth, Axia never was particularly content to sit still in one place for too long. She would relish every opportunity she got to explore the areas around her home, quickly growing more confident with every trip. When she eventually got to the point of interacting with other intelligent species, she was quick to develop a form more suitable for interacting with them, eventually settling on something that resembled the humans who seemed to share her burning desire to learn. For countless years, her routine remained the same- explore a new place, hang around for a bit, meet a few people, and eventually move on to the next place.

It wouldn't last forever, though. Conditions on her home planet changed considerably over the years, and it became increasingly more dangerous for her to stick around as a result. She found herself getting roped into plenty of conflicts, and the ongoing process of mechanizing dragons was worrying, to say the least. Eventually, she was left with little choice but to leave the planet in order to preserve her own life and well-being. She took to the stars as many others had done before her, initially settling in on the Libra station before beginning to bounce around between various ships and stations. She's content to continue wandering the cosmos for now, but she hopes that Earth will eventually be safe for her to visit every now and then.
